A revealing book sharing the intimate thoughts of a person who dedicated her life to God. Hers was not a stuffy life in a convent where prayer took up all her time. Instead, she could be funny and playful about her relationships and especially her relationship with God.

The story and the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe has fascinated the world since it first appeared on Juan Diego's tilma.
This book brings together the image's foremost experts to explain the miracles of the image: how such a detailed image was created on material as coarse as wool, the image seen in Mary's eyes, the symbolism in the image, and the results of scientific studies of the image.
The book also re-tells the beautiful story of Juan Diego and Mary's words to show more him.
